"I suspect He was going after Mr. Fool. After all, the first time was Mr. Sun, and the second time was me, and both times were after we prayed to Mr. Fool.!"

She asked in confusion, "But when we were discussing 'Him', Mr. Fool didn't say anything."

Klein: Because... I don't know anything.

Edward frowned and fell into thought: Amon's premature appearance was obviously not conducive to Klein's growth, so the goddess simply intervened directly at that time.

Although she wanted to train a qualified Lord of Mysteries, she would not let a Sequence 7 deal with Amon. That was not training, but suicide.

But this time she scared Amon away, what about next time? - Klein was leaving Backlund to perform at sea, which was not the goddess's territory.

Once deceived, the Tarot Club will turn into the "Montrose Club" in a matter of minutes.

Oh, I wonder if she will give Klein a layer of secrecy to prevent Amon from coming again?

God's mind is unpredictable, who knows what she is thinking.

Klein was more open-minded. "As for Amon, the only thing we can do now is to pray that He doesn't target us again. There's no point in thinking too much."

"As for Ince Zangwill..."

"He probably came back this time to take revenge on us, me, Leonard, the captain, and Edward."

"I checked with the captain, he hasn't encountered Ince yet, and the same goes for Leonard, so I am the first person he will take revenge on."

Klein continued, "Although we all know of his existence now, he is hiding in the dark after all. No one knows when he will suddenly come out and bite us."

There were some things he didn't say. To Ince Zangwill, he was already dead. In other words, the only ones he wanted to take revenge on were the captain, Leonard, and Edward.

Edward snorted coldly: "Then I hope he can show up sooner."

In the original novel, after Ince Zangwill wiped out the Tingen Nightwatchers, he took away Saint Selina's ashes and jumped to the Nightwatch of the Night Path.

But this time he has no chance to touch the ashes.

If he was promoted to Sequence 4, where did he get the materials for the promotion?

...

After returning to Backlund, Klein separated from Edward and the others. He planned to go to Fors to say goodbye before leaving. After spending many days together in the world of the book, she became one of Klein's few friends.

Unfortunately, when he arrived at the address Fors told him, he found that there was no one there. Looking through the window, the house was in a mess and it was obvious that they had left in a hurry.

Klein immediately realized that she must have listened to his advice and moved out as soon as she returned. If he wanted to contact her, he could either go through Mr. Fool's channel - but they had not used the Tarot Club's identities to contact each other before, which was a bit awkward.

Or ask Edward to help contact her by messenger.

The messenger again!

It seems like I really need to consider signing up for a courier soon as well.

Hmm! It just so happens that I have to say hello to Mr. Azik before leaving Backlund, and ask him about the messenger.

After Klein returned to the hotel, he took out his bronze whistle and blew it softly.

A moment later, a huge and terrifying skeleton messenger appeared and stretched out a white skeletal hand as big as a palm leaf fan towards him. The moment the skeleton messenger received the letter, it collapsed into countless white bones and disappeared.

"Huh, I can finally get a good night's sleep."

As soon as Klein lay down on the bed, he heard a faint sound of prayer in his ears.

"…"

He immediately took a pillow and covered his head, but it didn't help at all.

"Ahhhhhh!"

Klein sat up and went crazy: "To be a god to the extent that I am dedicated, there is absolutely no one before or since!!"

Complaining as he might, he still jumped off the bed and walked four steps backwards to the top of the gray fog. The red star that symbolized the "sun" was beating slightly, and the little sun was kneeling on the ground devoutly, with his hands clasped together in front of his forehead:

"Mr. Fool, could you please let me meet with Mr. Hanged Man? I have something I want to consult him about."

Tsk, the most honest one in the Tarot Club trusts the most scheming one, really...

That makes so much sense.

...

On the other side, Edward took Audrey and Lilith back to the villa in Queens.

As soon as Lilith got home, she rushed out, jumped onto the sofa using her hands and feet, then stuck her butt out like a cat normally does, and curled up in a comfortable position.

"Woo, it's still so comfortable~"

She yawned and began licking her hands again.

The two looked at each other but didn't open their mouths to correct the little guy. It was only the first day of being a human being and he had behaved very well today.

The two of them leaned side by side on the sofa, neither speaking for a while.

After a while, Audrey turned her head slightly and looked at Edward who was more than ten centimeters away.

"Are you going to bed?"

Feeling her gaze, Edward also looked over: "What's wrong?"

"I want to see the sea."

"ah?"

Edward was confused. Going to the sea in the middle of the night?

What can you see?

But since the girl had brought it up, Edward grabbed her hand and asked with a smile, "Where do you want to go?"

"Anything is fine."

"Then..."

Edward thought for a moment and opened the traveler's door: "Let's go."

Lilith sat up immediately: "Ms. Lilith is going too."

"Then let's go together."

He picked up the little guy, held Audrey's hand and stepped into the colorful spiritual world.

Although she had experienced traveling through the spirit world several times before, the magical scene here still made Audrey extremely amazed, and she looked at everything around her in a dazzled manner.

Lilith huddled in Edward's arms, her pupils reflecting all kinds of brilliant lights from the spiritual world, and her little hands unconsciously stretched out, wanting to touch everything, near or far.

Unfortunately, more than ten seconds later, Edward led them out of the spirit world and came to a dark beach.

The salty and humid sea breeze blows towards you, the sound of waves hitting the shore is in your ears, and in the night sky is the bright starry sky, which is reflected on the dark sea surface, casting tiny dots of light.

"arrive."

Edward put Lilith down and said, "This is the most famous beach in Bayam. We came here during the day last time."

"Wow!"

Lilith ran forward, shouting excitedly.

Audrey quietly looked at the sea, letting the sea breeze mess up her long golden hair. Under the starry sky, she looked a little more... charming than usual?

After a moment, she held Edward's hand and walked forward. When she saw a wave hitting her legs, she remembered that she had not taken off her shoes - but it didn't matter.

The cold sea water flooded her calves, making her shiver. She bent down and put her hand into the water, feeling the sea water with soft sand brushing against her fingers, making her feel itchy.

"ah!!!"

Lilith was happily chased by the waves. As a cat, she didn't really like water, but now that she has become a human, she finds that playing in water seems to be quite fun.

Edward looked at Lilith, then stayed on Audrey for a moment, and then looked up at the sky - today was a waning moon, so the stars were so bright and beautiful.

It's a pity that both the moon and the stars are extremely dangerous to the mysterious world.

Chapter 376 Confession

"Crash~"

Audrey poured cold water on Edward's face and asked, "What are you thinking about? Your forehead is wrinkled again."

"No, I just... was in a daze for a while."

She snorted deliberately: "Huh, when you are with me, you still want to be in a daze?"

Edward scratched his head and smiled foolishly.

Audrey turned her gaze back to the sea with spots of light in the distance, "Thank you, Edward."

She said suddenly.

"ah?"

She took two steps forward, put her hands to her mouth and shouted, "I said...thank you, Edward--"

"Why suddenly..."

Audrey turned around and smiled brightly: "No reason... Well, if you must give a reason, thank you for accompanying me to see the sea tonight, does that count?"

Edward nodded heavily: "Forget it!"

She waded closer, coming in front of Edward and blocking out the starry sky in the distance.

No, to be precise, at this moment she was more dazzling than the stars in the sky.

Suddenly, she stood on tiptoe and kissed Edward lightly on the lips in front of his astonished eyes.

Perhaps it was because of the sea breeze, the girl's lips were cool, and the brief touch was so quick that Edward couldn't even taste anything.

She stretched out her arms and hugged him gently: "Thank you."

Edward's body stiffened briefly, then he hugged her.

After a while, he took a half step back and looked at the girl close at hand with burning eyes, and said seriously: "Audrey, be my girlfriend."

"…"

Audrey was visibly stunned.

Then she pursed her lips and said helplessly: "I...I am so stupid."
